Richard Moore says Beverly Perdue's campaign has used state resources.

In a letter to state Auditor Les Merritt, Moore's campaign manager, Jay Reiff, charges that Perdue's chief of staff has been running her unofficial gubernatorial campaign.

"The lieutenant governor's attack today is the height of hypocrisy and phoniness," he said in a statement.

He notes that Perdue's campaign manager, Zach Ambrose, had only recently been her chief of staff in the lieutenant governor's office, and said her campaign chair, Robert Zaytoun, recently submitted extensive records requests to the Treasurer's office.

Zaytoun also is a member of the Health and Wellness Trust Fund Commission, Reiff notes.

The letter asks Merritt to look into Perdue's use of state property, the State Highway Patrol, phone lines, and her office, among other things, for her campaign.
